Previously, we simulated algorithms to predict psychosocial states by means of cardiac data (so-called, additional, nonmetabolic heart rate variability reductions; AddHRVr). For the first time, this study implemented the AddHRVr algorithm in real-time mode to evaluate whether we could predict stress, perseverative cognition, or low-quality social interactions. We applied an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) in a sample of 36 participants for five consecutive days. The functioning of the AddHRVr algorithm did not translate into real-world application, and higher stress, perseverative cognition, or low-quality social interactions following the AddHRVr trigger could not be confirmed. Further data simulations were conducted to evaluate the reasons for the algorithm’s malfunctioning. We provide recommendations for future studies and call for further research and technical refinements to better align simulation approaches with real-time applications.","PeriodicalId":47289,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Psychologie-Journal of Psychology","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136117822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) was used to investigate contextual factors during temptation and lapse episodes. Contextual factors included what participants did (activities), who they were with (social environment), and where they were (location). Participants ( N = 103) were smokers motivated to quit within three months. The EMA protocol ( N EMA = 6,457) began on a self-determined quit day and lasted 14 days. Generalized linear mixed models were performed to assess the association between each contextual factor and temptations and lapses. Various contextual factors were positively associated with temptations (e.g., sexual intercourse) and lapses (e.g., being outdoors) relative to random assessments. Lapses relative to temptations were mainly associated with social contextual factors (e.g., being with friends). How contextual factors can be addressed in (just-in-time) relapse prevention interventions should be the focus of future studies.","PeriodicalId":47289,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Psychologie-Journal of Psychology","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136117820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effects were assessed with mixed model analyses and serial mediation analyses. Results: Time had a significant effect [ F(2,358) = 11.7, p < .001], with an increase in social participation. Poor self-reported physical performance was related to a poorer social participation over time, but being physically active buffered this negative effect (total indirect effect: B = −0.02). Furthermore, highly engaged individuals with poor self-reported physical performance were likely to fall back into a previous stage of change regarding physical activity ( B three-way interaction = 0.28, SE = 0.12, p = .017).

In linear mixed effect models, we analyzed data of N = 27 participants in a four-week study, yielding N ESM = 2317 measurement points of psychological stress and well-being, and N Bio = 433 measurement points for biological stress values as registered by a smartwatch. The results indicate PPI effects on mostly psychological, but not biological indicators with agreeableness and neuroticism as moderators. Across participants, the psychobiological correspondence was weak, yet stronger for more conscientious and more neurotic persons.

Everyday assessments offer valuable insights into the behavior of individuals in their natural environment, providing a more complete picture than experimental studies conducted in the laboratory. Thus, real-world bio-psycho-social assessments allow the investigation of the links between psychological, biological, situational, and social influences on the one hand and mental and physical well-being on the other, while taking into account not only interindividual but also intraindividual variation. They also allow for the development and evaluation of interventions that provide tailored support where needed. In this context, the focus also shifts to intervention effects, where deliberate changes in behavior are intended. It is clear that the effectiveness of interventions often depends on individual factors.This special issue shows that person-level moderators play a pivotal role in this regard. These individual characteristics, such as personality, motivation, or past experience, can influence the intraindividual and interindividual variation in the various variables studied and the success of an intervention. Taking such moderators into account allows for a personalized approach to understanding health and disease processes, and designing interventions, as what works for one person may not be as effective for another.Digital device-based assessments provide objective indicators of a range of behaviors, including social media use. However, they are not always feasible to implement, as they require tracking applications to be installed on the participants’ smartphones and data to be collected over long periods of time. Irmer and Schmiedek (2023, this issue) tested whether children’s reported intensity of social media use was consistent with objective measures. Indeed, the two measures were highly positively correlated, indicating a relative accuracy of self-report measures at both the between-subject and within-subject levels. Importantly, accuracy declined with use intensity, highlighting the usefulness of digital objective measures of social media use particularly for heavy users.Digital technology can also be used to evaluate t","PeriodicalId":47289,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Psychologie-Journal of Psychology","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136008667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The place-identity theory has given a positive contribution to the field of psychology, emphasizing the influence of the physical environment on identity. But there is little research to support the theory, and its details are not seen in relation to other psychological identity theories. Despite mainstream psychology`s ignorance of the physical environment, processes described in social identity theory and identity process theory can also be used explaining the relationship between identity and place. It is also argued that if a general identity theory is used and further developed to explain the place-related aspects of identity, it can unite and broaden knowledge within both environmental and mainstream psychology.","PeriodicalId":47289,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Psychologie-Journal of Psychology","volume":"39 1","pages":"83-83"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2018-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88411575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
